Tom Toles: The Audacity of Hate. The only question is, "Who is the author?"
Edited on Tue Mar-04-08 09:38 AM by Buzz Clik


Gee -- who is Toles referring to? McCain? Clinton? You just can't tell anymore.

Something relevant from Countdown:

    OLBERMANN: Let me read this off the computer (from the CBS News blog), quoting Senator Clinton: "Many things Senator McCain will be able to say. He's never been the president, but he'll put forth his lifetime of experience. I will put forward my lifetime of experience. Senator Obama will put forth a speech he made in 2002." Is it unfair to say that she just ranked Obama third on this topic behind the Republican that she and the Democrats are supposed to be blood-oath sworn to defeat?

    MADDOW: That's what you say when you want to be John McCain's vice presidential choice. That's not what you say when you want to be the Democratic nominee for president.

1. Toles is always able to put a situation into perspective in
just one frame.

2. *sigh* More Team Obama spin
First play the victim, then accuse your primary opponent of spreading hate.

3. "Why do I always get the question first? Are you going to ask Barack if he wants more pillows?"
"Who will you trust to answer that call at 3 am?"

"The guys are ganging up on me!"

"Shame on you, Barack Obama!"

Shed a little tear, voice cracks, etc.

Tell me -- who is playing the victim? Clinton. 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. She is the victim of her own obsession.

10. If someone does something you think is wrong does that justify you doing it?
Just curious.

6. Hillary has shown her character. If she can't win, she will destroy Obama and the party. Despicable!

7. I have been amazed to watch this unfold.
I was squarely in Hillary's camp until late December. He hatefulness reminds me of GWH Bush -- and he converted me from being a Republican.

My switch to Obama has become more than a preference -- I am philosophically opposed the Hillary Clinton.
